also, http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/FFO
shows it was an early incarnation (1937) of the German space program
(and the German postal abbreviation for Frankfurt)

yields 2 references in German, both PDFs and some pictures in 'em

there's a very slight chance this is relevant to the story,
(you could link up the rocketeers in 1937 Munich and the fate of their program,
with the rockers in 60s LA and America's drift toward Reaganism, if
like David Bowie
you were willing to yell "This ain't rock'n'roll - this is genocide!",
I personally think that's a bit of a stretch tho)
but they were interesting in their own right

also, even less likely to be an intended reference I would think,
is FFO as the initials of a Norweigan organization for disabled persons:
